Helen Marie (Moriarty) Lynch, RIP










helagh Moriarty has informed me that Helen Marie (Moriarty) Lynch passed away on Friday August 9, 2013.
     Helen was as grandchild of Soapy Smith. Her mother, Mary Eva Smith II was Soapy's only daughter. I have very little information on Helen, so please, I encourage family members and friends of Helen to share their thoughts, memories, or life of Helen.


ADDENDUM: Since writing this post in 2013 I have joined Ancestry.com and found more information.

  • Married to Robert John Lynch.
  • They had seven children.
